Good day dear Hive Community, first of all I would like to welcome you to my new post and hope you are all doing well! Today I would like to talk about art history and hope you can learn something new about this topic.
Here are some works of art that I created with the help of artificial intelligence and are supposed to represent an important part of art history, expressionism. It is a direction that already has its beginnings in 19. Century and at the beginning of the 20th century, the second current began, which strongly influenced art and literature. This art direction was strongly influenced by the First World War as well as political unrest or disasters and the social changes by industrialization or other social problems. Apocalyptic scenarios or the decline of society were often chosen as the topic and fears of the future or uncertainties have strongly influenced this epoch. It can also be regarded as a counter-movement of realism and impressionism which were running at the same time and the focus of the works of art is on the emotional perception of the artist has been expressed with strong colors. Typical characteristics are the intense contours and the often shapes which together with the colors attract the eye of the beholder and artists of expressionism usually focus on the interior of human.
This art particularly flourished in larger cities and was often linked to a new generation who tried to bring their problems to the present in works of art. At that time, industrialization was often associated with an end to society and this change in structures increasingly caused psychological problems, changed people's morale and this was even more noticeable in cities than in the countryside. In literary Expressionism, it was about expressing the change of the times and some words were often deliberately omitted in the texts in order to create more dynamics and instead symbols were often used. The normal structures of grammar were often changed or completely ignored and it was often about incorporating the life circumstances or problems of the author. The criticism has also often been expressed and in addition, ideas or suggestions for improvement on certain topics have been incorporated and often the author often referred to certain role models on which it is based.
Thanks for taking the time to read through my post and I hope you like it and can learn something new about this interesting topic!
